^^ Expensive and sold at Saks and Nordstrom. Never impressed with the quality. Typical sleek, modern styling. Reminds me of Hugo Boss, Theory, etc. Looks like a sportcoat there - retail was probably around $400.

Really? Seems exactly the kind of thing you counter-cultural hipsters would be after.

EDIT: Before I start Thread War Three, I'm kidding guys. Chill.

All joking aside, does anyone here besides VLSI, caseyfud and acosbysweater ever actually look in SW&D? A quick scroll should be enough to disabuse many of the notions around what's desirable to that crowd (at least, the Styleforum SW&D crowd).

I still have the Marantz receiver that my dad bought before I was born (1972). Last week, I saw a Marantz DVD player at the thrift but the combination of inablity to test + didn't appear to be high end = no sale. As for me, I had a braces kind of day:

Five on the left are all Trafalgar, three on the right are BB (sorry for the iPhone pic):

Ace....I think even the low end Marantz stuff is fairly pricey. The cool thing about high end DVD players is they make great CD players.

This is my best recent find, actually: the JCrew Light shirt, notable for its, er, light, airy, breathable, summery poplin that belies its dark wintry colorway. Actually mine is grey and clean, without pockets. Posting because yay, it fits! and as a heads up to you SW&D dudes who might want some kind of dark, yet breezy, Damir Doma-ish -type shirt but no way are you paying that kind of money. For srs, though. You don't have to tell anyone it's JCrew.

Noob does, and barrelntrigger has been posting fits in the WAYWT No Discussion thread, though for some reason I think he might just be lost. But yeah, bowties are definitely a #menswear thing, SW&D isn't really about that.
